This book is about Beau and Eloise and their small town of Avalon Falls. This is the second book in the series. Eloise is a brass, tough woman who taken on the task of raising her 2 younger sisters for most of her life due to her mother’s addiction. She’s grumpy, overworked and phenomenal driver. Beau is Mr. Sunshine. He’s caring, thoughtful, sweet and a very savvy driver. Now these met at a drive in movie theater where they both went to relax and unexpectedly got caught in a storm and spent some time under a booth in a cafe getting to know one another, sharing secrets, the attraction between them was strong and intense and Eloise ran away as fast as she could. When they meet again (be still my heart) Beau says “I’ve been waiting for you Peach.” He was so invested in getting to know her and waiting to have a connection with someone of his own. The love story between them was so sweet and tender because he had a lot of walls to tear down. Now the car racing aspect of this story was one that I didn’t like and couldn’t relate to. Beau was running the gauntlet (race) and participating in it. I had a hard time grasping the logistics of this illegal race and how they were able to operate in this small town and make it so profitable. I know there is a movie series based on car racing but I’ve never seen any of the movies. The competition and rivalry of the drivers was interesting but I felt myself skimming some of the racing aspects of the story. The story of Eloise and Beau kept me engaged so that I could finish the book and enjoy it.
